...not.
I just came across what might the funniest football thread I've seen for a while. I'm sure some of you have seen it already but for those who haven't witnessed Cromartie's tackling poweress follow the link.

That first clip was an absolute jaw dropper. How can a professional football player, making millions of $, put forth such a pathetic lack of effort?
I would have loved to have been in the film room on Tuesday morning with the Chargers D, watching that clip!!!

Once again if I were a Jets fan, I would take Lito over Cromartie 7 days a week. Lito might not be the best cover guy but he will put his nose in there. And honestly I don't think Cromartie's cover skills are much, if any better than Lito's.

The Jets made some terrible decisions this offseason but many fans and people in the media have stars in their eyes blinding them from the truth. The Jets will be a 6-10 to 8-8 football team at best.

Exactly what I predicted. I said the Dolphins will have a winning season at 9-7, three games better than the Jets. Parcels has been re-building the Dolphins for going on three years and its time to show.

The Pats can wave to them from their double-digit win total a top the AFCE, as usual.

Caveat emptor ... Can't believe the jets looked at that film and traded anything more than a kicking tee for the One Man Population Explosion. Seems like he's not particularly interested in any physcial contact unless it involves procreation.

What will be funnier is Cromartie picking off Brady and taking it to the house.

The last time Cromartie picked anyone off and returned it to the house was in week 3 2008. Any guesses for who the side was Rex Ryan's Gut? Here's a hint. They wear green and white, play in a stadium owned by the Giants and they suck .

Cromartie has only picked off Brady once... and the Patriots still won that game. Seems he's a lucky charm for the Patriots.

I'd still rather have him for our second corner. Jets have him across from Revis Island. Who we got on the other side of Bodden? Freaking Jets corners are better than ours. btw, you could make a comparable video of all of Merriweathers boings, when he humorously just bounces off the guys he's trying to tackle. Oh, let me rephrase that... trying to "hit", not actually tackle. Teach that guy to wrap tha fug up with his arms.

I think Cromartie will be ok in NY. My best guess is that, with Revis shutting down each team's #1, Ryan hopes Cromartie can regain some of his 2007 form and pick off passes intended for weaker receivers.

This strategy might work against teams with weaker #2 WRs. The Jets will take advantage of Miami, Pittsburgh, Tennessee, Denver, and teams that have a clear #1 and a bunch of depth players.

I think this strategy will fail miserably against teams who have elite slot guys at #2 like New England and Indy as well as against teams with big bodies, power WRs at #2 like Houston and San Diego.

Nail. Head. Hit.

The problem is IF Revis goes down, then the Jets are fukked. I think that their safties are a pretty ****ty fit in terms of their defensive system too.
